Exploring the Relationship of Perivascular Adipose Tissue Inflammation and the Development of Vascular Pathologies

<div>The anti-inflammatory state of healthy perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) compared to the proinflammatory state of dysfunctional PVAT. CVD: cardiovascular diseases; FGF-21: fibroblast growth factor-21; IL: interleukin; MCP-1: monocyte chemoattractant protein-1; NO: nitric oxide; RANTES: regulated on activation, normal T cell expressed, and secreted; ROS: reactive oxygen species; TNF-<i>α</i>: tumor necrosis factor-alpha.</div>
